I don't feel guilty for not being best friends with my brother.
In my view, forcing sibling closeness often creates more tension than it solves.

Wait, you don't feel guilty at all? How is that even possible?

I read an article that said guilt over family stuff is often just social pressure.

I’ve seen a lot of families push for perfect holiday gatherings where everyone pretends to get along. That pressure to be best friends just makes people fake it, or worse, resent each other. What if you and your brother just never clicked, like you have totally different interests or values? Isn’t it better to have a real, distant relationship than a forced close one that’s full of tension?
